The ballistic missile was launched earlier hours on Friday from unspecified Yemeni area. Yemeni military media does not give details form time and place of targeting for security reasons; but used to give names and type of missile. However, this time it did not provide type of missile, saying only it is a mid-range ballistic missile.

Military official source said that mid-range ballistic missile has targeted Saudi Camp (Qowat Al-Wajeb) in Najran, confirming it targeted the camp with high accuracy.

Missile force unit of the army and the Popular Committees (Al-Houthis) has announced launching a new stage of confrontation with Saudi-led aggression, after bombing Al-Yamamah Palace in Riyadh with a local ballistic missile Borkan-2H on December 19, after 1000 days of aggression on Yemen.

“American support and the international protection for Saudi regime did not prevent Yemeni people from going into confrontation and Yemeni blood will not be wasted,” the rocket force said in a statement.

The statement confirmed that the launch of ballistic missile (Borkan 2H) on Al-Yamamah palace in Riyadh comes as a coronation for 1000 days of Yemeni steadfastness to confront the aggression.
